Well, a few things. First, my home course is 5,800 yards with a ton of elevated tee boxes (plus 3 of the par 3's are 215 yards+ so some of the yardage is embedded in those). There is only one par 4 over 400 yards and even that one, the tee box is elevated about 40 yards over the fairway so the ball flies. Second, i don't really think of hitting every green, or any green for that matter. If i'm 190 yards out i dont try to be a hero and rip my 4 iron there, i'd rather hit a pitching wedge, then hit a full 52/58 degree wedge in. I am too inconsistent with my longer clubs to consider using them on the course, i would end up losing 8 penalty strokes. By doing this my ball striking is improving a ton, and my short game gets a TON of practice every single round. I feel confident from everywhere 100 yards and in because i have played those shots so many times. I understand that playing this way 100% eliminates birdie attempts and even makes getting par's difficult but the distance will come eventually for me. And once the distance and longer clubs come, then my handicap will start to drop again.
